yeh right... never thougth about that.

im getting a bosch 040 pump to put in there this week, reason being i had to change over the fuel filter the other day and it was the factory stock filter! i weighed about 1 kilo, full of crap, so i figured its about time to change the pump as well. should i get an AFR plot before changing the pump?

Front and dumps+mo boost then dyno...then wait for the ceramics to let go after a few days, week, months whatever and then your in the club :)

Seriously I'd get the tune sorted then leave it alone...if you want to keep money in you pocket that is. Pump's a good idea though.

you'll probably find that Mine's ECU of yours is tuned to Jap petrol (102 octane most likely) and it'll be running lean. A fuel pressure regulator is probably needed, and if you're upgrading the fuel pump make sure the relay is in good order, making a full 12V at the pump. As for the turbos, its just a matter of time. I've heard of people running 14psi consistently on the ceramics with no troubles at all. Me on the other hand, as soon as I took it to the track they clapped out after the 5th lap. $10k later and its back on the road :worship:

As for the dumps, fit them when your turbos eventually blow, it wouldn't be worth the cost of labour otherwise.

When one of my ceramics let go, 13psi, I went for 2860R-5's. There are a few knowledgeable guys here who believe that destroying a ceramic is a death sentence. My engine tested fine and continues to have good oil pressure after 17K on the new turbs. Cat...what is that lol

      Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.

      I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.

      No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.

      Can you mount the ATTESA pump in other locations?

      Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!

      You think its the AFM? I know its a common issues on R32s. I find it coincidental how this issue raised right after cleaning the fuel system. As everything except the fuel system was fine before. I tried running it with the IACV unplugged but did not notice a difference and still stalled. However, the RPM gauge is not in the cluster right now, so I will need to connect the laptop again and use Nistune to check the RPM. I will check this weekend.
